Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness: Patrick Stewart confirms he is playing Professor X in Marvel film

• In a recent interview, actor Patrick Stewart confirmed that he is playing Charles Xavier aka Professor X in the upcoming Marvel film Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

After denying it for weeks and pretending he had no idea who Doctor Strange is, actor Patrick Stewart has finally admitted he is indeed reprising his role as Professor X in the upcoming Marvel film Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. The film's latest trailer, which released last month, had hinted at Patrick being in the film as his voice is heard in it. But the actor continued to deny it.

Speaking on Jake's Take, Patrick talked about the reaction to the film's trailer and said, "Well, I had my phone turned off as it happened, so I didn’t hear anything. It wasn’t until the next morning when I woke up and looked at my phone and found that I had been bombarded with responses and that my PR people had sent me reactions that they had detailed and passed onto me."

He then went on to confirm his presence in the film by addressing his appearance in the trailer. "I actually didn’t recognize my own voice, it sounded different. Whether I had a cold or something at the time, I don’t know. But I was astonished, and all they saw was the back of my shoulder, and I think my earlobe, nothing else. There would have been so many connections made. But, uh, it pleased me," he said.

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is part of Phase 4 of MCU. The Sam Raimi film has been described as Marvel's first horror film and will release in theatres on May 6.
